Abstract

The academic circles have different opinions on the trend of the overall income gap in the process of urbanization. This paper adopts the Eviews empirical test method and draws the following conclusion: with the acceleration of urbanization process, the overall income gap of the residents in China appears to expand first and then reduce, showing a trend of inverted U shape, the urban-rural income gap and urban-town income gap are the main reasons for the change in the overall income gap. Accordingly, it is suggested that in the process of promoting urbanization, we should synchronously promote the citizenship of migrant workers, the modernization of agriculture and the process of anti-urbanization.
